Subject: [PATCH] SLUB: Make lockdep happy by not calling add_partial with
 interrupts enabled during bootstrap

If we move the local_irq_enable() to the end of the function then
add_partial() in early_kmem_cache_node_alloc() will be called
with interrupts disabled like during regular operations.

This makes lockdep happy.
